When I get these phone calls I don't answer any questions nor do I confirm who they are looking for. I start asking them questions and seem like they don't want to answer mine so I hang up on them. I have one guy who has been calling for a year I must of told him that he isn't very intelligent every single call and that is why he has to resort to scamming people. I said you must not be really smart because you keep on calling me under different companies and don't you think by I now your voice. He's called from Rogers which I don't deal with, Microsoft, Revenue Canada, Bell, Royal Bank, CIBC which I don't deal with. He hasn't called in weeks so maybe he was one of the recent arrested. What I want to know is how they get your name and know which banks you deal with. I'm sure it's just mostly guessing but I'm sure they have inside people they know. These calls are coming from other countries.
got a call this morning. i knew right away that it was just another slimy real estate agent. i answered in a funny voice pretending i didn't understand. they hung up telling me they would call later. never did.
they called first with the CRA number....1-855-874-7811....they called and tried to scare you into thinking you are being sued by the Canada revenue service and they are sending cops to your door in 20 minutes,....then i played with them and they used the 647 number to check......
